Not only did this "dump" become a park, it is sacred ground. Debris from the towers collapse was brought here to be sifted through by volunteers. Neighbors rallied to feed the volunteers. Many families received priceless items from their lost members, lie rings, watches, wallets, ID cards. — Mary Bullock on Field Trip: Freshkills Park

I guess people won't care about the effects of the mercury clean-up, nor the violation of the historic district height restriction because of NIMBYism, or they are just not New Yorkers. Travel the world, and learn how other countries plan, preserve and restore the surroundings of their historic landmark for future generations. We definitely need more affordable housing, but we don't force build it anywhere with vacant land, especially right next to a designated national historical monument. Please be civil and properly build something that is appropriate over the 250 water parking lot, and abide by the historic zone height restriction. — Tom on Neighbors organizing (and suing) to fight 250 Water plans

Re Cicci di Carne -- if you google it, you'll find links to Grubhub for restaurants in both Seattle and Sacrimento (both "not accepting orders on Grubhub, but may be soon") that have the exact same menu as the listing for BPC (which is on Grubhub too). There's also a pending trademark/service mark application for something called Cicci di Carne by Dario from an LLC with an address on Spring Street. — N on Seen & Heard: Prayers for Eric Adams at Washington Market Park

Where is Al Sharpton, Ben Crump when there are black on black crimes or even black on white? There’s no money in that, that’s why. Why isn’t the Floyd family speaking out against this madness? Mental illness and blatant disregard for another human being knows no color! I’m not even asking where the hell is DeBlasshole because he’s a total waste. Why haven’t any of them come forward to lead? Black man punches 81 year old to the ground and proceeds to steel his cane? Where has decency evaporated? Twenty TWENTY prior arrests!!!! Bail reform? The only thing bail reform did was issue a Get Out Of Jail Free card. The criminals own the streets, we the law abiding citizens have to live in fear as a result or just get out of Dodge! WAKE UP LEADERS OF ALL COLORS ALL COLORS!!!! — Sharon on Vague plans approved for restaurant at 181 Duane

I commiserate! I have been parking my car in that garage for nearly 40 years! It's the least expensive garage in the neighborhood and I pay over $600 a month!
